And a certain poor man by the name of Lazarus was laid at his gate, afflicted with ulcers,

and in hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and saw Abraham from afar, and Lazarus in his bosom.

And he called and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am in pain in this flame.

But Abraham said, Son, remember that you received your good things in your life, and Lazarus in like manner evil things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in pain.

A CERTAIN man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister.

It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hairs, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

And Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

He said these things, and after this he said to them, Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I go that I may awake him.

Then Jesus, therefore, said to them plainly, Lazarus has died;

And having said these things, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

THEN Jesus, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

Then they made him a supper there, and Martha served; but Lazarus was one of those that reclined with him.

A great multitude of the Jews, therefore, knew that he was there, and came, not on account of Jesus only, but also to see Lazarus whom he had raised from the dead.

And the chief priests took counsel to kill Lazarus also,

The multitude, therefore, which was with him, testified that he called Lazarus from the tomb, and raised him from the dead.
